Darn, it was my own mother's appointments. I tried to share YouTube family subscription so she didn't have to see ads, but that never worked.
It did populate my google calendar with her medical appointments apparently.
Ever since she collapsed at her workplace and discovered a hematoma and then bloodclots, she's been scheduled into Doctors visits. Thankfully she works at the hospital so it's kinda convenient.
Then I'm looking at my own leg and all of a sudden I see what looks like new varicose veins. Like mother like son apparently.
our ancestors at my age were launching on spaceships to the moon (or at least successfully laundering a lot of money and producing science-related TV docufantasies).
I could at least sign up for learning how to fly a twin engine aircraft before this all goes duther downhill.

What a fuckin soap opera this is.

jabbed tho right? that will be making it worse
Yeah, it's a family history of clotty blood. Grandma---Aunt, uncle and mom and brother. Jabs are prob not helping.
Thankfully the nurse that gave my mom the 2nd shot (required for hospital workers) asked her "it sounds like you don't want this" and my mom said "no". She said It felt like the nurse just smacked the side of her arm with a pen and told her she was jabbed.
Varicose veins in legs are mainly from sitting i assume. Some people just have this. I walk like miles a day and in like standing desk to work so I'm not really sure what more to do. Maybe some sort of targeted leg exercises?
yeah, probably hot baths helps too, also cutting back/out on caffeine and nicotine because both constrict the finer blood vessels which contributes to embolisms
Didn't consider caffeine. Interesting hmmm. Sounds like Swimming in the ocean would also be good

TALK TO A DOC YOU TRUST, I AM NOT ONE
BUT LOOK INTO NATTOKINESE IT IS A NATURAL SUPPLEMENT THAT CAN HELP BREAK UP BLOOD CLOTS. ITS JUST FERMENTED BEAN, THERE ARE ALSO PRODUCTS WITH SILKWORM WHICH DO THE SAME. DISSOLVE-IT-ALL HAS BOTH I THINK
IF EITHER OF YOU ARE STATINS GET OFF THEM. THEY DO ALMOST NOTHING AND ADD RISK
MAYBE GET ONE FOR BOTH OF YOU. GOOD LUCK BROTHER I'M ROOTING FOR YOU
Thank you. I will check those out. I'm not on statins And neither is she. She does have some blood thinner that hopefully can come off of after 6 months. Apparently losing some hair due to that.
It's kinda her wish to keep working though as a 69 year old. She drives 1.5 hours 1 way 3 days a week. For blood clots this is risky.
Tried to convince her to retire and enjoy life and her grandkids already but she needs the hectic hospital to calm her AdHD in addition to feisty grandkids.
I'll look into eating the silk worms and dissolve-it-all:-D . Sounds like Drain-O.
